Hmmm.. So just a little rally of 60,000-70,000 of us tea partiers managed to produce the biggest election in over a century - 6 Senate seats, 65 House seats and most incredibly - 695 State House seats. How could that possibly happen? Imagine what would have happened if there had been twice as many of us - oh wait there were over a million of us: http://michellemalkin.com/2009/09/12/celebrating-the-912-rallies/
Ah - NOW the election result isn’t so mysterious after all. .
So, who was it that said "You can fool some of the people all of the time" ? Good 'ole Abe ! He was referring to the 1860 version of the Tea Baggers. NO repuitable survey of the 9/12 fiasco even comes close to 2 million. . Re-check the photos for palm trees, there might be some in the background of the pictures.
There was one person stopping a tank in Tiananmen square, against the whole Chinese government, Because he was only one person, did that mean he was wrong?
If you're foolish enough to believe Beck, Hannity and Fox & friends, good luck.
Neither of the above. They are all covering the disaster in Japan. But the other two choices are also a big preference for many in the main stream media.
Sigh, my point was that if all we'd managed to turn out was the claimed numbers, the biggest election in over a century would not have happened. They really important number was the down ticket, the state houses - 695 state house seats, resulting in 22 state legislatures changing to republican hands is an enormous swing, that's what really showed how big the Tea Party is.
The current mess in Wisconsin will make sure that the 2012 elections are just as large. The American people can plainly see that those protestors are just paid professionals, since ordinary people cannot be gone from their jobs for weeks on end. If the unions had been clever enough to cut their demonstrations short, the paid professional charge would not have stuck.

Using Michelle Malkin's math, there were 4 million on the streets of Madison, last Saturday, Martin...
